Accommodation high up on the mountain overlooking the Knysna lagoon. The accommodation was different unlike anything else out there. It felt like living in a retreat high up on the mountain where you could enjoy peace and tranquility. The owners thought of everything when designing this place as all your needs and more were met.

Hi Wayne, thank you for taking the time to write such a beautiful review. We do appreciate it. It was great meeting and hosting you both and you are most welcome to visit us again. Warm regards, Ellie & Francois.

Hallo Wayne, dankie dat jy die tyd geneem het om so 'n pragtige resensie te skryf. Ons waardeer dit. Dit was heerlik om julle albei te ontmoet en te huisves en julle is baie welkom om ons weer te besoek. Hartlike groete, Ellie & Francois.

Comfortable, cozy, clean and value for money! What a wonderful experience! It truly feels like a little 'paradise' at the top of a neighborhood. The cottage is finely and optimally planned and every little thing has its place. Neat, clean and quite luxurious! The cottage also contains everything you could possibly need. Our hostess left us a bottle of wine, chocolate, soft drinks and milk in the cottage. Absolutely value for money! We stayed in the Stone cottage, but will definitely pay a little extra next time to enjoy the remarkable view from one of the other cottages.

Gemaklik, snoesig, skoon en waarde vir geld! Wat 'n heerlike ervaring! Dit voel werklik soos 'n klein 'paradise' aan die bopunt van 'n buurt. Die cottage is haarfyn en optimaal beplan en elke dingetjie het sy plek. Netjies, skoon en nogal luuks! Die huisie bevat ook alles wat jy moontlik sou nodig hê. Ons gasvrou het vir ons 'n bottel wyn, sjokolade, koeldrankies en melk in die cottage gelos. Absoluut waarde vir geld! Ons het in die Stone cottage gebly, maar sal beslis volgende keer bietjie ekstra betaal om die merkwaardige uitsig van een van die ander cottages te geniet.

Was my 1st stay and not my last, see you again end 2024. Excellent location, close to the harbour. So much to view. Had a 5-hour day trip out mixing with locals. Went on a boat cruise. Let's be frank, that place rocks. A must-go for newlyweds. Family outings must be planned, but yes, I will see Knysna soon again. Where I stayed, the host was friendly with our 1st meetup. She gave us an overview of the place and of Knysna in general. The venue was 100% enjoyable, clean, well-positioned, and updated. Rating 10 out of 10.

Amazing views and exceptional service! Ellie and Francois make a dynamic couple and received us with a warm welcome. The views are exceptional and the service is excellent. They go above and beyond for the guests with quite a few extra perks that you don't receive elsewhere. We will definitely be staying there again.

A hidden gem. Wow, what can I say, from the hosts Francois and Ellie, to the amazing studio, views and so so much more. I will be back. This was part of a weekend getaway for my hubby's 60th. He was blown away and the atmosphere created such a tranquil environment, I will recommend it to anyone wanting to get away to relax with the spectacular views of the lagoon all the way to Knysna Heads. An amazing stay and experience!

Bitterly delicious. Very nice views and friendly and fast service. Uncle Francois and Aunt Ellie welcomed us warmly. I would recommend Paradise Private to any new or old married couple. The view is extremely beautiful and if you don't have a view of the Knysna Heads, there is a separate deck that offers you the picture-perfect view.

Bitter lekker. Baie mooi uitsigte en vriendelike en vinnige diens. Oom Francois en tannie Ellie het ons hartlik verwelkom. Ek sal Paradise Private vir enige nuwe of ou getroude paartjie aanbeveel. Die uitsig is bitter mooi en as jy nie 'n uitsig van die Knysna-koppe het nie, is daar 'n aparte deck wat dan vir jou die beeldskone uitsig bied.

Value for money and friendly people who make a lot of effort. Thank you very much for everything! It's really the small detail that makes the difference, thank you very much again.

Waarde vir geld en vriendelike mense wat baie moeite doen. Baie dankie vir alles! Dis regtig die klein detail wat die verskil maak, weereens baie dankie.

Feel free to do so. Breathtaking view. Very neat. We had a great time. Value for money. Will definitely recommend to others. Best view of the lagoon. Enjoyed the extra breakfast.

Heerlik gerus. Asemrowende uitsig. Baie netjies. Ons het heerlik gekuier. Waarde vir geld. Sal beslis aanbeveel vir ander. Beste uitsig van die lagoon. Het die ekstra ontbyt geniet.

Stunning view, private. Fantastic host and hostess. The studio is located high up and offers a breathtaking view. Everything about this stay exceeds your highest expectations. It's private and the studio is very stylishly laid out, photos don't do enough credit to the detail. Ellie and Francois are fantastic hostesses and hosts and caring people. Definitely good value for money. Can't wait to go again.

Asemrowende uitsig, privaat. Fantastiese gasheer en gasvrou. Die studio hoog geleë en bied asemrowende uitsig. Alles van hierdie verblyf oortref jou hoogste verwagtinge. Dis privaat en studio is baie stylvol uitgelê, foto's gee nie genoeg krediet aan die detail nie. Ellie en Francois is fantasiese gasvrou en gasheer en omgee-mense. Vir seker goeie waarde vir geld. Kan nie wag om weer te gaan nie.
